“If you count according to boxing rules, then I would give the victory to Yang” – Tszyu about the fight between the Russian and O’Malley
Former absolute world boxing champion Konstantin Tszyu said that Russian Petr Yan would have defeated American Sean O’Malley if the MMA fight was judged according to boxing rules.
On Saturday at UFC 280 in Abu Dhabi, Yan lost to his opponent via split decision in a three-round fight. For him, this was the fourth defeat in his career.
– Fight by split decision, and by one point: the situation is back and forth. Which and how of the judges looked … It is generally difficult to talk about refereeing. If we count according to boxing rules, then I would give Peter the victory with a score of 29-28, – quotes Tszyu “Championship”.
